“I’m a first time homebuyer learning plumbing basics. The specialized experts/ sales team is full of knowledge and I find that I not only save time, but I also learn from these guys. Big thanks to Randy who has been helping me lately. Very knowledgeable individual”
“Still waiting on backorder handles but handles l did get are just what I was looking for, the MRG or OWNER was very helpful to talk to. And a good business to deal with. Thanks”
“Came in here today needing a few random bolts to fix my daughter's scooter, with no idea what parts that would actually fit. The lady behind the counter was happy to help me with my problem. After we test fit a few bolts, we got everything all tightened down and it was as good as new & I was out the door in less than 10 minutes. 10/10 customer experience & was very helpful.”
“Phenomenal experience! I'm from out of town, and was having some issues with my bike. There were 2 parts specifically I was looking for, with no details about size/names. I went into the store and Tyrese helped me first. He went above and beyond to not only help me find the part, but to put it on the bike seat (after I explained I didn't have any tools where I was staying). We were still troubleshooting the second part, when he suggested I come back and talk to Bill (who has extensive bike experience). I rode back an hour later, and Bill was happy to help. He had me wheel the bike into the store, took a good look at it. And it turns out I didn't need to replace the second part - some areas just needed some tightening. Everyone that helped was kind, helpful, and happy to help. And they didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need, and were happy to problem solve things with me. Absolutely amazing experience.”

“Patrick was knowledgeable and helpful. When our order wasn’t what we expected he worked with us to make sure everything was right and we were happy. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”
“Rented a deck sander. They had everything I needed. I rented for 4 hours, but the return time was after they closed so I got to keep it until the next morning! So nice to not have to rush it back at night.”
“My mower broke down. I took it in here and Nate fixed it. I got it home and it stalled out on me. I was a little heated as you could understand. I took it back and he took care of it no questions asked. He even put a brand new engine on for me. Good to go!! 😃😃”
“I shop here a lot, mainly for tools and garden so I was kinda lost with today’s request, Jim in flooring was a great help to me.

Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors.

Ace Hardware is reimagining itself with a new store concept. The home improvement retailer plans to invest over $1 billion in the next five years to roll out "Elevate Ace" across new and existing locations. The revamped stores will feature brand showrooms, expanded product lines, and enhanced customer service. Some locations will even boast outdoor spaces with live plant displays. Ace gave retailers a sneak peek at the concept during its recent Chicago convention. While a few stores will debut the new look later this year, the full rollout begins in January.
Ace Hardware is hammering out an impressive growth story. The retailer-owned cooperative is celebrating its 100th anniversary with a bang, reaching 5,000 U.S. stores and planning to open 200 new locations in 2024. The company hit a milestone when it opened its 100th new store this year in Henderson, Nevada. Another newcomer, Fixit Ace Hardware in Roswell, Georgia, became the 5,000th domestic Ace store.
In the latest move of its growth plan, leading paint maker Dunn-Edwards just opened 17 new retail locations throughout Northern California. This expansion of physical stores boosts the company's footprint in the region by over 50%.
The expansion caps an exciting time for the nearly 100-year-old company. With its 100th anniversary in 2025, Dunn-Edwards is strengthening its market position through planned growth focused on better serving pros, homeowners and employees.
